Detailed Product Description:

 

Alodine® 600RTU, a registered trademark of Henkel Surface Technologies, is a

 

pre-mixed, ready-to-use chemical formulation for a treatment process for aluminum

 

used to provide corrosion protection and as a surface preparation for paint and adhesives. 

 

Sometimes called “aluminum passivation,” this formulation contains hexavalent

 

chromium and is intended to provide corrosion prevention even when left unpainted.  

 

 

The primary difference between Alodine®600 and the more common 1200, 1200S, and

 

1201 formulations is in coating weight.  Generally, the Alodine®600 formulation

 

will produce a lighter weight film than the 1200.  The Aerospace industry typically

 

uses the 600 formulation on areas that require electrical bonding, whereas the

 

Alodine 1200 series (1201, or 1200S) are called out where maximum corrosion

 

protection is required for surfaces to be painted or left unpainted.

 

 

For aviation applications, Alodine®600RTU is used for corrosion protection where

 

low electrical resistance is required.  The subsequent exposed electrically bonded

 

assemblies or installations must then be sealed.

 

 

Chromate conversion is an excellent treatment method to prep aluminum prior to paint

 

or adhesives since it greatly enhances the ability of an organic coating to form a bond

 

with the aluminum substrate.  Being a surface conversion treatment rather than a coating,

 

it will not alter the dimensions of the part.

Alodine® 600RTU methods and properties produce results consistent with those

 

defined by Mil-C-5541-F, Mil-DTL-81706, and referenced in QPL-81706-16.
